For MCA in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at Chandigarh University, you must have a graduation degree like BCA, B.Sc (IT/CS), B.Tech, or even B.Com/BA if you had Maths in school or college. You need at least 50% marks (less for reserved category). The admission is mainly through CUCET exam. You just apply online, pay the fee, and choose a date for the test. If you do well, you can also get a scholarship. After clearing the test, CU will call you for counseling and confirm your seat. The process is simple and doesn't take long.

That is a great question and I will break it down for you. To get admission to CU, your 12th-grade academic records matter a lot. Good scores in your 12th-grade exams make you eligible for scholarships.
If you have scored 90% you get 50% of semester fees. 85 to 89% get a 20% discount. 80 to 84% Get a 20% discount.
Now let's talk about CUCET. While it is not mandatory for admission to interior design programs, CU has opened it up for all students.
It is a chance to grab additional scholarships based on your performance in CUCET.
In the end, you will be eligible for the highest scholarship among both categories.
From October 2023 to May
